Former Nikola Corp. (NASDAQ: NKLA) Executive Chairman and founder Trevor Milton pocketed about $49 million from selling 3.5 million shares in the startup electric truck company last week. Milton is the subject of federal investigations over fraud claims alleged by a short seller that drove the company’s stock price to crater last fall. It is trading in the teens from a high of more than $90 a share following its public debut in June 2020.
